Dave was the founder of this tournament and a mainstay in helping it run smoothly each year.  He was always quick with a joke or a fun story that kept everyone around him loose. 

dave was a very good golfer (which very quickly made him an anomaly as participation in the tournament grew)!  He enjoyed the camraderie of his finance colleagues as well as cold refreshment and a round of golf.  His creation of this tournament and enduring influence on it are a natural result of the fun person he was.
